Shopify Alt Text Sync, Easier Attribute Management, and Simplified Text Attributes

Manage image alt text for Shopify, update existing dropdown and multiselect options, and simplify how you work with text attributes.

Watch our updates video to see everything in action:



Sync alt text from Plytix to Shopify

You can now sync image alt text from Plytix to Shopify, making it easier to manage your image metadata alongside the rest of your product information.

Already have alt text in Shopify? You can bring it into Plytix, too.

Download your store assets as a CSV file, import the file into Plytix, and update your existing assets with their alt text. Once you’ve enabled Sync alt text to Shopify in your channel settings, Plytix will update it in Shopify the next time your channel processes.

Learn more about how to start managing your Shopify asset data in Plytix.



Edit existing dropdown and multiselect options

Need to fix a typo or rename an option in an existing dropdown or multiselect attribute? You can now edit existing options instead of creating new ones.

This makes it easier to maintain consistent product data and keep your attribute options up to date without any extra steps.



Manage text attributes with one Plain Text type

We’ve combined Short Text and Paragraph attributes into a single Plain Text attribute type.

Instead of choosing between two different text attribute types when creating an attribute, you can now use one simplified type for your text content.

It’s one less decision to make when setting up your product data.
